VOICES OF EXPERIENCE

Advice, insights, and lessons learned from those on the
forefront of emerging technology and trends.

Advice, insights, and lessons learned from those on the forefront of integrating emerging technology.

Realizing the benefits of bringing utilities together to share their experiences, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Electricity launched an initiative to collect the experiences, insights, and lessons learned of utility representatives implementing emerging technology. The Voices of Experience Initiative is unique in that it compiles the valuable insights and advice provided directly by utility personnel at the forefront who are working the challenges, interconnecting the new resources, and testing the emerging technology. Utilities participated in working group discussions, regional meetings and individual interviews with the purpose of sharing industry knowledge so that all utilities can better prepare for the operational challenges they face in this changing industry.
